    I could use a small brush like that for cleaning around the lugs.

    For cleaning around spokes I use a older MF towel, wrap it around the back of the spokes and pull it from side to side. For my holies nothing really gets to the backside of them, but then you can't really see back there on them.

    To be honest, if I was going to spend that kind of money on a Boars hair brush, I'd use it for my shaving soap:lol:. I'm kind of old fashioned that way, shaving soap, mug, and brush.

    No, not that brave, but I do have an old one for wood carving. And I use a leather strop for honing my chisels.

    The Boars hair was kinda pricey but damn it works, and fast. Gets to those tight crevices on the face of the wheel far better than any wool or MF mitt or piece of terry cloth.

    Money well spent for the time it's gonna save me, hell if I use it for shaving I'm even saving MORE money! :)Thanks Mark!
